With: position lock button towards volume buttons, Volume-down held down start button pressed for 3 seconds unit starts. I can see the lines of text in the upper left corner of the screen and I get the android standing up but in a few seconds he is on his back. I have tried moving the rotation lock switch back and forth during the process without any luck.

3.With the Volume up button held, press and hold the Power button for 3 seconds then release it. Continue holding the Volume up button.

Well I have the same problem, I think it is a BIOS problem because after the acer screen it says Windows did not start succesfully. I saw start Windows normally but it has that "blink of an eye flash" as well, then it goes back and tries to boot up again. Maybe take it to a shop to get fixed.

Yes this error occurs because of your harddrive is not recognized properly in bios. For that when you power up the computer press F1 or F2 or del or ALT+F2 key to enter in bios. Then make sure SATA is disabled load optimal default settings of bios make sure harddrive is recognized in bios. then you can use windows again. Also disabled boot from network . Then save settings and exit from bios. Let me know if you need further assistance. Thanks for using FixYa.

This tablet could be repaired, most likely the LCD screen needs to be replaced and power and volume buttons may also need to be replaced.
This is not a easy DIY job and you need to send it away for repairs. The repairs may not be a cost effective solution, it maybe better to put your money towards a new tablet.

This might sound a little stupid, but 1 is it plugged in when you put it sleep mode, and when u open the screen do you physically have to turn it back on. Sometimes when you put a computer in "sleep mode" and its not plugged in you lose power slowly
SOURCE: Have an Acer Iconia A500 tablet and the off and on switch broke, who fixes this?
Take it to your local computer shop. You could use one of the large high street companies, but you will get a cheaper and quicker fix from a local shop.
